You cant unless you get a decent 3d card.

The Intel Extreme blah is:

a.) way to slow
b.) doesnt have the features required (shaders) for OpenGL 1.4 and up
c.) is crap

You have plenty.
I have a personnal preference for Nvidia, so I suggest something based on GeForce 6200. For ATI, search around Radeon X600 Pro.

Before you buy a video card, make sure your motherboard has a AGP slot. Some of the low end Intel boards came with built-in video AND did not contain an AGP slot so you could upgrade (thanks Intel!).
